over the course of four albums, manchester based trumpeter, composer, arranger and band-leader matthew halsall has carved out a niche for himself on the uk music scene as one of it s brightest talents. his languid, soulful music has won friends from jamie cullum and gilles peterson to jazz fm and mojo as well as an ever-growing international following. his label gondwana records is home to gogo penguin and his own albums have found halsall exploring the modal jazz of john and alice coltrane, paying tribute to the hard bop of the late ’50s and early ’60s or most recently on fletcher moss park drawing on eastern influences in his most personal statement yet. his latest album when the world was one is something of a companion piece to fletcher moss park (much of the music was written at the same time) but draws more explicitly on halsall’s love of spiritual jazz and eastern music as well as his own studies in meditation and travels in japan. beautifully recorded at hasall’s favourite studio, 80 hertz in manchester, and engineered by brendan williams and george atkins it features the recording debut of halsall’s large ensemble, the gondwana orchestra, which utilises the exotic flavours of harp, koto and bansuri flute and eastern scales to create a global palate for halsall’s life-affirming sounds.

since his last full-length, ode, tin man, aka johannes auvinen, has taken a collaborative approach to acid, bringing his 303 box into studio scenarios with cassegrain, john tejada, aaaa and gunnar haslam in order to explore new territory. on acid test 11, auvinens arrived on a seamless pairing with manchester production duo jozef k and winters son. on the title track, tin mans acrobatic 303 no longer has to do the melodic heavy lifting-the mancunians provide a sturdy yet plaintive piano base that allows a duet of acid lines to cut through the heady atmosphere. interdimensional transmissions boss erika toughens things up considerably with her fates unknown remix, stripping things back to a creepy, jacking core. pendle by night underlines the ad hoc trios propensity for widescreen heft. the tracks epic, emotional tone feels like a natural product of the collaboration

nice price - all tracks written and recorded by gordon sharp and matt kinnison between 2006–2011 at roi vert, okamoto (japan), 13th floor and space eko (london), southend (essex)... mastered at piethopraxis, june 2011. cut by rashad becker at dubplates & mastering, berlin, june 2011. hold everything dear is the third instalment in the new cindytalk sound which started with 2007s the crackle of my soul, and then last years up here in the clouds. its the first in the trilogy to feature musicians other than gordon sharp namely the late matt kinnison, to whom the album is dedicated. inspired by the john berger book of the same name, this latest release is whole new set of parameters which push the sound on the previous two works to an extreme point of abstraction, and in some places near silent passages and haunted melodic segments. and what a mysterious journey this ends up being with increased use of piano and found/field recordings giving all the tracks a blurry soundtrack appeal to the point where the definitions between the tracks are no longer clearly defined. it harks back to the odder parts of in this world and the wind is strong albums from the early 1990s

dead fader - john cohen is surely one of the most overlooked voices making electronic music today. his approach to making honest and emotive electronic music has pushed the boundaries in recent years and challenged so many concepts and traditions within the music industry and scenes. but also without loosing sight of a bigger picture and finding a balance between emotions, technology, politics and expression.

one of the most charismatic and respected djs in poland, eltron (aka eltron john) presents what is probably the most expressely club-oriented record in transatlantyk history. his four track offering sounds much like his sets - ferocious and subtle, raw and sophisticated at the same time. the main mix of b&s blends druggy deepness inspired by the vibe of 90s tribal america with uk funky riddims, creating the sort of pneumatic house groove that never fails to get the party rocking. this simple, yet meticulously produced tune has already been road-tested and received enthusiastic feedback from a number of jocks around europe, and the vinyl version seems destined to strengthen its deserved banger-with-a-message status. the dub version of fuses layers of darker, industrial bleeps with a classic break and a rather healthy dose of echo. trippy and rough, yet exhilarating - it is exactly the kind of track you want to hear in a dark warehouse. switch to the b-side for the light , where sampled vocals, pitched-down drums and fuzzy pads are combined to form a unique specimen of lo-fi r n b, eltron-style. this hazy groove is guaranteed to guide dancers ever-so-gently into the light of the morning. finally, reprise exposes the bare bones of the original. with its dubby, in-your-face quality, it is one for the track heads, definitely.
